Handling hot air/IR dryer slide-in units
D
Hot dryer slide-in units (hot air/IR) pose a risk
of burns. Always let the dryer slide-in units cool
for a long period of time before handling them.
D
IR radiation damages the eyes. Avoid looking
directly into the IR radiators.
D
IR radiators are pressure-sensitive. The pinch-
type ducts at the ends are particularly sensitive.
Therefore take extreme caution when dealing
with IR radiators.
D
IR radiators are sensitive to dirt. Grease and
sweat from the hands burn into the quartz pipes
and shorten their lifetime. Always wear clean
gloves when handling IR radiators.
D
If, however, the radiators become dirty, wipe
then with a soft, lint-free cloth. The front side
of the IR radiators can be cleaned with a cloth
lightly soaked with alcohol. Alcohol may
not
be used to clean the gold-plated back of the
IR radiators.
